Review on YSUCAU Solar Powered CCTV Security Dummy Camera with Flashing LED for Enhanced Outdoor/Indoor Surveillance - Suitable for Homes & Businesses by Christopher Gonzalez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Looks real but weathered lasts about 1 year

Previous purchase of such units lasted about a year. Mine are exposed to the weather and eventually water gets in and destroys them. The manufacturer recommends not placing them where they will be exposed to the elements, but I find that difficult. Right after I installed this unit we got 4 inches of rain and after a week it's still working. I have five units that completely surround my house and no one knows they are fake. These flashing lights really grab people's attention. It takes less than 5 minutes to swap out, so spending $100 a year seems like cheap insurance to me. However, I wanted someone to make a device that was waterproof.

Pros
  • ☛ Blinking LED: Blinking red LED, powered by solar energy or two AA batteries, saves more power and ensures normal operation on a cloudy or rainy day. Let everyone believe that your house is under surveillance 24/7.
Cons
  • Some bugs
